Reading Max Weber's Sociology of Law serves both as an introduction
and as a distillation of more than thirty years of reading and
reflection on Weber's scholarship. It provides a solid and
comprehensive introduction to Weber and sets out his main concepts.
Drawing on recent research in the history of law, this book also
presents and critiques the process by which the law was
rationalized and which Weber divided into four ideal-typical stages
of development. Hubert Treiber provides commentary in a manner
informed both historically and sociologically. The book explores
Weber's concepts in relation to the creation of laws between
secular the religious powers. The book goes on to examine the
codifications that were undertaken by Prussian absolutism and
Napoleon in the Code Civil. It further covers Weber's thoughts on
antiformal legal tendencies, issues that are still prevalent in law
today. This text is no mere reiteration of Weber's concepts. The
volume contextualizes Weber's work in the light of current
research, setting out to amend misinterpretations and
misunderstandings that have prevailed from Weber's original texts.
Treiber's introduction is much more than a simple guide through a
complicated text. It is an important work in its own right and
critical for any student of the sociology of law.
